You Promise

Where else would I go Lord?

Where else can I find

All the promises you’ve given

Coming through in my life?

 

You promise refuge from the storm

A hiding place for my soul

So I will not be fearful

When the days grow cold

 

You promise a fortress around me

To strengthen me when I am weak

The walls of your mercy rise mighty

To keep out the enemy

 

You promise me health and deliverance

From all that has gone before

I now longer walk in my past life

I can walk in your victory, lord

 

You promise me peace and joy

In a world where these are lost

You fill me with both of these virtues

And promise there won’t be a cost

 

You promise me salvation

Redemption from my sin

A new life birthed within me

Your Holy Spirt within

 

But more than all these things above

You promise me your steadfast love

It’s crowned with grace and mercy sweet

I will bow before your feet

For you are worthy of my praise

For all the wonder of your name

I’ll lift you high in all my days

And praise you for your promises

What A Change

I was sure

No one could hear my cry

No one could feel my hurt

No one could truly love me

 

Then I found

Jesus would hear my prayer

Jesus would heal my pain

Jesus would always love me

 

I knelt down

And prayed through in tears

And prayed for His peace

And prayed He would save me

 

He came in

And filled up my soul

And filled me with joy

And filled the void in my heart

 

Now I know

His love has no end

His love is by grace

His love shows His mercy

 

What a change He brought

To my longing heart

What a Savior He is to me

Because He has set me free

 

He’s all that I ever sought

To fill up my poor dead heart

And He’ll do the same for you

If you’ll only ask Him to

The Present

Today is the day
Not yesterday
Today is the day
To praise the Lord
Today is the day
Not next week
Not last week
Today is the day
To worship Him
He is the one
Who gives us the present
He is the one
Who gives breath every day
He is the one
Who gives rythm to heart beats
Only my God
Can show me the way
Today is a present
All wrapped up in hope
His peace calms my spirit
His joy overflows
This wonderful present
Is mine for the asking
It comes every moment
From Jesus my King
He is the one
That showers with mercy
He is the one
Whose love reigns divine
He is the one
Who gives grace amazing
Only my God
Will always be mine
Today is the day
Today is the present
Today is my gift
From Jesus my Lord
Today I will praise Him
Today I will worship
Today is my chance
To give thanks to my Lord.

Mercy Reigns

Mercy Reigns

Flowing from the Father

Mercy Reigns

In His love forgiven

Mercy Reigns

I am His forever

 

There is no greater power

No mortal tongue can know

What length our heav’nly Father

Would go His love to show

 

He spoke and light appeared

The earth, the sun, the sky

He commands them by His word

Yet He chose to die

 

He saw my sin and wretchedness

His love reached out in tears

He gave to me His righteousness

He speaks into my ear

 

Mercy led Him to that cross

Mercy is His way

Mercy paid the final cost

Mercy wins the day

Mercy is my only hope

Mercy, gift so free

Mercy says He loves me so

Mercy rescued me

 

He did not have to come

He did not have to die

God looked down with all His love

His mercy saved my life

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace

From God above

Sent us His son

Gave us His love

How sweet the sound

What melody

Is His sweet mercy

Unto me

 

Amazing grace

His blood was shed

His back was bruised

The pierced His head

No tongue can tell

Or words can say

The price He paid

For me that day

 

Amazing grace

He came to die

To take our sins

And give us life

The angels sing

The heavens roar

Of His great love

Forevermore

 

Amazing grace

He loved me so

He bore the cross

His love to show

Forgiving me

Of all my shame

Now I will praise

His mighty name

 

Amazing grace

He rose again

He conquered death

And now He reigns

Soon He will come

Back for me

I’ll be with Him

Eternally

Thank You

How can I thank you?
What can I say?
For all that you’ve done
For me this day?
What words can offer
How I love you?
For all the things
You say and do?
You rise up the sun
To brighten the day
You give me my breath
And show me thy way
You carry me through
The storms in my life
You hold me closely
In my hardest times
You give me joy
To cast fear aside
Your peace is a comfort
When trials arise.
There’s so many ways
You make this life grand
I just want to stay
In your loving plan
Now I say thank you
Thank you so much
I cannot thank you enough
Thank you my Savior
Thank you my Lord
Thank you for all of your love.

Mercy Is All

There are so many times
I know in my heart
His mercy is all that I need
From the most desperate days
To the oft sleepless nights
He mercy will cover me
When I’m sick in my bed
And a daze fills my head
His mercy is all that I need
Because no matter how long
It takes healing to come
His mercy will cover me
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.
When I feel down and out
And I just want to shout
His mercy is all that I need
Because I know that He
Is right there with me
His mercy will cover me
When the enemies strong
And I don’t have a song
His mercy is all that I need
He’ll raise up His hand
And help me to stand
His mercy will cover me
I’ll trust in the Lord
With all my heart
And I won’t trust in those things I know
I’ll acknowledge Him
In all my ways
And He will make my paths known
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.
